Postpartum Doula Services

Everyone says having a baby is a life-changing event and it is. But nobody says you have to do it alone. Postpartum services vary greatly from client to client but here are highlights of what I can do to help you feel more at peace:

• Consultation by phone or in person to see if we are a good fit

• Listening, reassurance, answering questions, emotional support for your family, or just sitting and chatting

• Nurturing you as you learn to care for your new baby and your family adjusts

• Evidence based education and assistance with newborn care

• Establishing and supporting feeding, ensuring rest/shower

  • Bring baby to you in bed to nurse and then care for baby while you continue sleeping

  • Bottle feed while you pump and sleep

  • Formula feed while you sleep or a combination of any feeding method

  • Help with older siblings while you rest/shower

• Light housework-laundry, dishes

• Babywearing

• Recognizing symptoms and screening for Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders

• Professional referrals and resources

• Please note that I only offer postpartum services to my birth clients as a continuum of care.
